Joining in with The Blended Blog’s linky party where we are sharing our fall fashion finds.
I have been looking for some colored denim-like pants but I wasn’t having any luck. Then a few weeks ago, I tagged along with a friend to the Towne Center. After stalking Old Navy but leaving empty-handed, she suggested we pop into the Dress Barn store next door.
I had NEVER even stepped foot in Dress Barn before, truth be told, but because she wanted to go, I agreed. After some browsing she found some colored jeans. She tried some on and liked them. While she was in the fitting room, I found the same pants in petite! I quickly tried some on and yay! I really liked the fit: perfect length, high-enough waistband and I loved the color! How could I resist? I bought two!
I’m wearing the olive pair styled with a chambray top. I added leopard flats and grey pearls. Such an easy, comfy outfit, yet I feel pulled together.
I can tell I’ll get a lot of mileage out of this pair of pants! Stay tuned for more ways to style these olive skinnies. Linking up with The Blended Blog, My Refined Style, I Feel Pretty, Style Me Wednesday.
Cute outfit! I love chambray anything, and who would have thought to actually go into Dress Barn? Ha! I just found your blog today (from the link up at Get Your Pretty On) and I am excited to subscribe! Looking forward to your posts, Sheila!
Hi Maryanne! I’m so glad we connected! I know, right? Pants in a Dress Barn?? I was not having any luck looking in my usual stores so imagine my surprise (and my pleasure) at finding what I was looking for in an unexpected place! Life lesson here, maybe? So glad to have “met” you! ~Sheila
I need to get back up there to look at these jeans! Great outfit!
Check it out! Hope they work for you!
I love my olive skinnys. Perfect that they are petite and you don’t have to get them hemmed!
Yes! I hate having to hem things!
Love the olive and chambray together. So pretty!
Thanks Lana! It works the other way [jeans on bottom, olive on top] so I figured this would work. Happy it did!
Love olive pants! Also…the watercolour navi-bars are such a pretty update on le blog!
Merci buckets my dear! Loving les olives!
This kind of thing happened to me recently with Loft. A place I don’t shop but went in and found the perfect skirt. I guess you just never know!
I never shop at Loft either. I went in once but didn’t find anything. But I guess that’s why we need to shop with friends, right? They push us to try new things!
